Your method makes more sense to me. I'm guessing that there were technical reasons for making it different from the button.
At the very least, there should be an example for how to use the new super powers. In particular, I'm wondering how and if you can pass off a variable to the parameters? Do you need complete <$action...></$action> syntax? Does it need to work with the <$fieldmangler> or can it be used independently? Inquiring minds want to know. Good luck!
